But I definitely don't think knocking something out of the air means >>>>>.
But destroying something definitely means >>>>>.

Also, it's HOW you do something, not the fact that you do it. The way IF broke the sword proves that he can EASILY knock Mjolnir out of the air.

How does breaking a regular sword prove anything?

How does breaking a sword and sending Black Sky flying back even worth bringing up against Mjolnir?

Almost a decade later and you're still just as illogical. Points for consistency though.

It's HOW the sword was broken.

First, That was a very high quality tempered katana.

Second, Pressure = Force / Area

Since the point of the blade was sharp, it had a very small area. So when Danny struck it, there was tremendous pressure on his fists. He broke the sword into many pieces as if he was striking air (there was no loss of momentum). Breaking something into multiple pieces (more than 10) takes at least an order of magnitude more force than breaking it into two pieces. Also, this sent Elektra flying through the door.

Mjolnir has the a cross sectional area of more than a thousand times that of the point or edge of the sword's blade. This means Mjolnir needs more than a thousand times more force just to equal a swords blade in Pressure. Elektra flew through a door. Multiply the force to do that by over a thousand.

Originally posted by Surtur We have been given no reason to assume the enchantment stops working if it is in the air.

Query: Thor tosses the hammer up a few feet into the air and lets it drop down. Could a normal person standing right beside Thor catch the hammer before it hits the ground?

The enchantment only works when someone is trying to wield Mjolnir. Kurse easily knocked it away. If Kurse tried to grab it then he would have failed. Unless you think Kurse can lift Mjolnir without being worthy.

Where is the proof that breaking a sword requires the same or more force as what is needed to knock Mjolnir out of the air?

Mjolnir throw never produced a force above a thousand times the force that sent Elektra through the door.

So again, can a normal person catch the hammer if Thor tosses it up into the air and lets it drop? Or heck forget tossing it. Say a person puts both their arms out ready to catch it, Thor holds the hammer about a foot higher than their arms and merely lets go.

What happens?

You say the enchantment only works when someone is trying to wield it, lol...what? If that were truly then SHIELD would have been able to move the hammer using technology(like a crane) as opposed to having to build a temporary base around the thing.

Will the hammer stop at the first inanimate object it encounters? Like landing on a coffee table? Thor did hang the hammer on a hat rack at one point. But then again, it was him that put it there. Obviously if he drops it in a multi floor building, it's not going to crash all the way through to the bottom floor until it hits the ground. It could get kind of tricky. If Thor puts the hammer in the back of someone's car, can they drive off with it? Could I move it by throwing a Nother heavy object at it and striking it? I never actually physically touched it. How did vision pick it up so easily? Was it because he was not a biological being?

This is reminiscent of Cap and Tony's conversation in Age of Ultron about the elevator and Mjolnir.

Using cranes, etc. was attempting to wield it.

Due to Kurse being able to bat it away then we have 3 possibilities.

1. Kurse can lift Mjolnir off the ground while being unworthy
2. Striking or grabbing Mjolnir out of the air doesn't have the same effect as lifting it.
3. Movies are sometimes inconsistent and have contradictory showings.

In support of 2, QS, in Age of Ultron, drastically slowed Mjolnir and made it fall down the moment he tried to grab it in the air. If QS wouldn't have grabbed it then it would have went straight and hit the wall (it wouldn't have dropped vertically downward while going forward).

The same thing happened when Hulk tried to catch it. Mjolnir fell straight to the ground. Unless you want to say that Thor threw it so softly as to travel only 30-50 feet before hitting the ground.
